June 7, 2009 - Iowa Tornado chase near ankeny, ia

June 7, 2009 - We were going to intercept the tornado coming near saylorville lake - it came up further south than expected - so we had to jet out - on the way out we caught two funnel clouds - last one looks like that the winds were reaching the ground

I was sitting in the IHOP by the Superwalmart next to a big plate glass window watching the whole thing. It was a truly ominous looking storm.
